The volunteer response for the obit index project was amazing, we have enough volunteers to do three years of indexes. Steve has already started putting them on the Blair page. http://www.rootsweb.com/~pablair/obit_index.html Actually, Steve did better than I did, I have to send out the 1953 indexes to the volunteers yet!! We have been entertaining visiting grandchildren, and will continue to do so for the next 17 days!! Right now we have our two grandchildren from WV for their annual two week visit. I just want you to know that I have learned new slang, and there is an entire world of hair products, shoes, and rappers out there that I know nothing about. Did you know that those female singers with long blonde hair, and lots of eye makeup are not the same person? Indeed not, they just look and sound alike!! I will try to get those out early next week. If you have volunteered and have not received your files, they will be in the mail soon!! It has also come to my attention that I have repeated the same newspaper transcriptions to the list. I apologize for that, but I must say, I repeat myself in person too, so that may explain it!! Thank you all again, and especially to Steve, who is 'freakin awesome', he is working very hard to get these indexes on-line before he leaves for a few weeks next Wed.
